Pres. Obama Calls for Amnesty at La Raza Conference | NumbersUSA - For Lower Immigration Levels

Pres. Obama Calls for Amnesty at La Raza Conference | NumbersUSA - For Lower Immigration Levels: "Pres. Obama made a renewed call for a mass amnesty on Monday while speaking at the National Council of La Raza's annual convention. Pres. Obama told the crowd that he would continue to fight for amnesty, but he would need help since he was working with a Congress that is pro-enforcement.

'I will keep up this fight,' Pres. Obama said. 'We have a system that separates families, and punishes innocent young people for their parents' actions by denying them the chance to earn an education or contribute to our economy or serve in our military.'

Pres. Obama's speech was partisan in nature as he tried to rally support among Hispanic voters for Democratic candidates in 2012.

'The Democrats and your president are with you. Don't get confused about that. Remember who it is that we need to move in order to actually change the laws.'"
